How do you all stay confident in the in between stages of weight loss?

Like a lot of people, I gained weight in the pandemic. I finally got serious about making healthy choices last year, and have lost some of the weight, but am nowhere near my goal weight and still have a long way to go.

I’m proud of myself but still feeling weird. I moved, and haven’t seen some friends + family in a while. I’ve also been working from home for a few years, and I’ve kinda become a homebody. I’m embarrassed to go out + try new things as much as I used to because of my weight gain + a lot of clothes don’t fit. It’s also strange and frustrating being treated differently by strangers as I’ve gained weight. I’m also ashamed to see old friends + family and have been avoiding it. I know my friends will still be kind, but I am worried about unsolicited comments from family and relatives.

Despite all this, I really want to change my attitude this year, and stop letting my embarrassment and negative thoughts get in the way of living my life. How do you all stay confident in the in between stages of weight loss?
